60 years on the throne?

[russell]

About time the whole monarchy crap ended, its pointless and a waste of money.

Speak the Queen's English, boy!

They bring lots of tourists in - I reckon they are a money making machine!

Once the awful Prince of Daftness ascends to the throne republican sentiment will rocket in the UK. With all his misuse of influence and privilege, the bloke is an utter arse.

Maybe, since even us republicans quite like the queen, she should stay queen. We could have her stuffed and mounted on the throne. Tourists could pay £25 for a view.

Just as well republicans have got no say in the matter then.

Perhaps that's why she has stayed as queen for so long

Damn right. In the quest for efficiency we should also:

• Remove all funding for sportsmen
• Tear down all the theaters and cinemas
• Knock down old buildings and monuments to create affordable housing
• Build on all London's parks - what a waste of space
• Ban reading of fiction and listening to music

It's outrageous how much money and time is wasted on unimportant things, it could all be spent on baby life support systems and bobbies on the beat.

WHS, especially if it means getting rid of paying footballers those stupid salaries they supposedly earn

[d000hg]

How DARE they earn more than us, that's just not 'fair'.

None of these are remotely like the Monarchy, all these other things provide leisure or entertainment at a reasonable cost. The Monarchy is a bunch of inbred upper-class idiots, who if disappeared tomorrow would make not one iota of difference......wait a minute d000gh are you royalty too?
